Thank you

I am not able to open my older files in X17. They freeze. How can I work on my old files?

Thank you, I worked on this file a couple years ago and we need to make some changes. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nkgzpj1ut9j1ia7mmrun8/WILLIAMS-BACKUP-11.8.24.zip?rlkey=2p2gvtgxflcdcxvqsvuvkwnz3&dl=0

Thank you! I am not sure how I got the large hatch to show on floor plan view without a fill.

I have changed the flooring but the hatching is still showing previous material hatch. The material dropper has the correct material and hatch. There is no fill hatch on the room. Not sure what is going on?

footage!

The Square Gootages do not match. Chiefs was lower than ours. Example tile square footage for a shower. Chiefs was 100sqft lower than our calcs. Makes me nervous to rely on. Susan

We are looking for some great tips on creating material take offs for Interior Design. We have calculated take offs on our own and there seem to be discrepencies. Does anyone have a good video or tips they can share to create reliable take offs for purchasing countertops, tile, wood flooring, beams etc...? Thank you! Susan

Is there a way to create arched cabinets?

Thank you so much for you helpful tips! This works great!

I am trying to create a cushion back like this. Do I just make this out of slab cylinders? I tried to do with CAD lines and convert but they only convert to moldings.

How do I restore the Library search bar? Somehow I deleted it and can't restore. Susan

Oh wow! That is what I was afraid of!! I guess if I created this I could keep it as a model in my library. I will definitely save and use your directions! Thank you!! Susan

Is there a way to create arched upper cabinets in Chief? Image attached of what I am trying to do.

Thank you so much! I am waiting for the Architect to try these methods and will let you know! Susan
